I'd forgotten how much fun it was smashing Darkstar's arguments. I'll poke my head in every once in a while to answer him. ;)

Good lord! How many posts does it take to proof to Captain Newland that hyperdrive is faster than warp? :shock: (topic: last resort)

Newland called himself "Fleet Admiral Thompson" here. He's a complete imbecile who has absolutely no shame about using an argument even if it's been disproven (to his face) fifty times.

Ok, I honestly don't get this. I'm hardly a scientist. I'm not in college and when I go, I have no intention of studying science or math beyond that which I'm required to take to be a music major. I'm a decently intelligent guy, but I'm no mental juggernaught. But I can see a picture and I passed my high school math and science classes. There is no possible conclusion beyond the Empire kicks the Federation's ass no matter how you look at it. It's not exactly all that complicated.
The gift of Superman is the same in his universe as ours. It's not about his powers, his costume, his persona, it's about the using the gifts he has to help people. We all have gifts too, maybe we can't leap tall buildings in a single bound, but maybe we're good with math, maybe we're charming. We can use our gifts -whatever they are- to help people. We just need to make that choice. And Superman shows us that it's possible.

I agree with that statement 100%. He makes a thread about a subject, we disprove him, then in the next thread he says to look at the other thread about why he's right.

Funniest thing I've seen all day...(I've been awake for about an hour though so that's not too hard ;) )

GStone was making fun of Ossus and somehow Newland thought he was on Ossus' side and started flaming HIS OWN TEAMMATE. Hilarious. :lol:

GStone came on and his response was basicly... :wtf:

Should I sign up to the board and give it a try to help educate these people or would it really be a wasted effort?

They listen to Darkstar. You are, as he puts it, 'suck Rabid Warsie cock'. I doubt anyone would listen.

Wait wait wait, they are claming that phasers are 10 to 100 times more powerful than photon torps? Hell that claim is shot down in just about every episode where those two interact.

Yup. That's what they're claiming.

Plus the guy just doesn't get a chain reaction. He thinks that if a phaser will cause a chain reaction that totals over a gigaton in ice, it will do the same thing against a Star Destroyer. He doesn't get the match-to-a-forest analogy :roll:

They think phasers are 10 gigatons and photons are 100 megatons. Even though we've shot both down, Newland runs to another thread and claims it again.

Are you actualy quoting someone, or creatively interpreting what they think of me?

I'm quoting Darkstar's words for any Trekkie who isn't on his side.

Where did he prove TL's are pathecially weak? At numerous occasions, I see him saying that he's already proven it at another page, but I can't seem to find said page. Actually, that reminds me of someone else, who used to claim he'd already proven things...

I do not see what being a "warsie" or being a "trekkie" has anything to do with a debate on the ability of the Empire to defeat the Federation in all out war. So somebody who thinks wars will win is a "warsie" and somebody that thinks trek will win is a "trekkie"?

That's ridiculous. Your personal preference of what to watch and what is more enjoyable should have nothing to do with debating. I like watching Star Trek more than Star Wars for the simple fact that I grow tired of the epic good versus evil black and white space fantasy genre. A few exploding consoles here and there isn't going to turn me off Trek. There are only so many times you can watch Wars before you grow bored, and Trek has hundreds of hours.

"Trekkie" means something very specific -- a nerd who dresses up like Spock and goes to Star Trek cons. What the hell does it mean to some people, I don't know. If you want to diss people who think that Trek will win, don't use the word Trekkie. It insults the real Trekkies.

Where the hell did "Warsie" come from.

Trekkie was used as an insult against exactly the sort of folk Trekkie means: A fanatic whose completely out of touch with the real world. Of course, this upset the Trekkies, so they made up 'Warsie'. What's really pathetic is that if you used the terms in the wide world, no one would know what 'Warsie' meant. But everyone would know what 'Trekkie' meant.

When we felt like being civilized, ASVS referred to the debators as 'Pro Trek' and 'Pro Wars'. Of course, we rarely felt civilized.

Meh, I guess I'll sign up and post some when I get home. Can't hurt. I wasn't able to ever post on G2K's site, because he never sent me a confirmation or whatever, and it closed down a couple days later.

Hehehehehehe. The Trekkies are suffering friendly fire. *Accepts Newland's accidental concession that he made by saying his own position is unproven after mistaking it for our position.* :lol:
